The Garoopion litter mat is a 40 by 28 inch single-piece silicone mat with raised edges, sized to sit under a box and catch what a cat kicks out. Silicone is the material difference here: it is soft enough that cats will actually walk on it, and non-porous enough that you can rinse it in a tub or hose it off outside instead of throwing it away when it gets gross. The raised lip stops urine and spilled water from reaching the floor, which is the failure mode of flat carpet-style mats. Litter dumps straight back into the box, and the mat vacuums or sweeps clean between rinses. Best fit: multi-cat households and anyone whose current mat has started to smell.
Pros
- Rinses fully clean in a tub or with a hose, unlike fabric mats that hold odor
- Raised edges keep urine and spilled water off the floor
- At 40 by 28 inches it actually covers the landing zone instead of the two feet directly in front of the box
Cons
- A single 40 inch silicone sheet is bulky and heavy to lift for rinsing compared to a light fabric mat
Frequently asked questions
Will my cat actually walk on it?
Silicone is softer underfoot than the plastic honeycomb mats cats often refuse. Most cats adapt within a few days.
How do you clean it?
Dump the trapped litter back into the box, then vacuum, sweep, or rinse it in a tub or with a hose. It is non-porous, so it does not hold odor.
Does it slide on hard floors?
The silicone grips tile and hardwood well. On very smooth surfaces a rug pad underneath helps.
Can it be used for anything besides litter?
Yes. It works as a feeding mat, a boot tray insert, or a plant saucer, since the raised edges hold liquid either way.
